Loved ones will say their final goodbyes to 53-year-old Sumittra Lairopi on Tuesday. 

Services for the Dededo mother will take place at the Our Lady of Peace Memorial Gardens in Yona.  

As KUAM reported, Lairopi was having dinner on Valentine's Day at the Thai Thai Healthy Cuisine restaurant in Tamuning before she was robbed at gunpoint and shot. 

She died two days later in the hospital. 

Since her death, loved ones have reached out to the community to help the family cover the cost for Lairopi's funeral expenses. 

To date, donors gave nearly $10,000. 

Investigators said the robbery was drug-related. 

Domingo Mendiola is being held on a half-million dollar cash bail in connection to her murder.
